  • the britax first class has a red clip to put the belt in once it is fitted, you pull it through and it is a firm tensioner that holds the belt in place - the length of the remaining seatbelt, which would likely not even be exposed, is irrelevant

    I find it interesting that Britax said that when you phoned - their own website's "Fit Finder" http://www.britax.co.uk/car-seats/fit-finder/ reckons that a Britax First Class will fit a 2003 Sedona just fine.

    slack between the wall of the car where the setbelt extends from and the red tension clips is completely normal

    Do the middle seats come out so that the pram could go there instead of the boot?
